What is an EVO ICL?

The EVO ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) is a revolutionary lens used during refractive surgery to correct vision issues like myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism.

This biocompatible lens is designed to be implanted behind the iris and in front of the eye's natural lens. This procedure preserves the cornea's integrity and offers a great alternative for individuals who may not be ideal candidates for laser eye surgery.

Benefits of EVO ICL

 

Preservation of Corneal Tissue

Unlike laser procedures that reshape the cornea, the EVO ICL lens does not require any changes to the corneal structure, making it a better option for individuals with thin corneas.

 

Superior Visual Results

Many patients report exceptional vision quality and contrast sensitivity after an EVO ICL procedure.

 

Invisible

The lens is positioned behind the iris, rendering it invisible to both you and observers.

 

FDA-Approved

ICL received FDA approval in 2005 for a wide range of myopic correction needs.

 

Reversibility

While the lens is intended to remain permanent, your surgeon can remove it, if necessary.

 

Quick Recovery

Procedures using an EVO ICL lens tend to be quick with a relatively short recovery time.

I was super nervous at first but Dr.Goel and his staff made everything super simple and they were very helpful especially when I would reach out days after asking the same questions over and over again.Now I dont have to wear glasses and I have amazing eye sight now.
